Checklist

• Prepare all promo material beforehand (images, screenshots, title and 1st comment);
• Your product can be published at any stage. Be aware that if somebody post you when you are not ready, you will have to improvise;
• Find a top hunter who will submit your post. Like Eric Willis or Kevin William David. You can make it yourself too, if you are a maker;
• Many claim the best time to go live is on Tuesday, 2 am CST. A good chance to get more attention during the week, but at the same time, there is a higher competition;
• Make a dedicated discount page for hunters. They like free stuff. Proved by our experience;
• Make sure to provide a swift response on D-day;
